I had the great honor of making this young lady's Prom dress. This time around I made her wedding gown and her Grandmother and Mom's dress. These are priceless opportunities when making a custom design dress. Some of the special touches during fittings, video chatting with Mom and Grandmom during her fitting. Hand embroidering the names of her Usilla (Great Grandmother), Lois (Grandmother). Dawm (Mother), onto the left side of the gown train, which is the side with the heart. Also the embroidery is embellished with real pearls. I look forward to photos and will share them as soon as I receive them. The fabric of the dress is a silk satin from C & J textiles, 230 W 38th...
My good friend Sherri comes by and makes a one pot meal, vegetables and salmon. She also talks about her creative journey, Paris, and food.
Her headpieces are sculptural works of art and she is still on a creative journey. https://www.legacybeauloni.com/

My recent visit to the grocery store (Bogopa), which had a sale on eggs, 5 dozen for $5. That was a bargain I didn't want to miss, but a bargain is not always a bargain, it could be a burden. What to do with cracked eggs you make something eggy.
I am starting something new on my You Tube Channel, Cooking and Talking in My Kitchen. My first guest was a student chef enrolled in Johnson and Wales University. Alexandra has loved baking she used to help out her Aunt Paula who made pies and cakes. She learned about tools and measuring. We...I mean she made biscuits and Honey butter. She is quite a baker and is on her way to do great things in the culinary world.
One more thing at about 1:21, I mean to say CAKE Decoration not CALE Decoration
Saks 5th Ave always has this "Disney like" light display set to music. The first few years they did this, the music that was used was Mannheim Steamroller, Carol of the Bells. This year it was 'No Business Like Show Business'. Even in the rain, the viewers gathered to look up at the building every 15 minutes, ending with thundering applause.
This is Christmastime in NYC, nothing will dampen our spirits. The windows for
Saks was fashion, dreaming, and show business. lovely jewel tones. Like most starlets, they love a bead, bauble and a rock that cuts glass.
